Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a single 5 mm water brush pen?
Yes. You get one water brush pen with a 5 mm round tip and a refillable barrel.

What is a water brush pen?
It is a brush with a hollow barrel you fill with water. Squeezing the barrel wets the tip, so you do not need a water jar.

The single pens come in 3 mm, 4 mm and 5 mm. Choose 3 mm for detail, 4 mm for everyday use and 5 mm for bigger areas.

Can I use it with acrylic paint?
It is made for watercolour. Acrylic and oil can clog the tip.
